What is the Summer School and its Program?This year, the Jena School for Microbial Communication (JSMC) will host its first Summer School in Jena. They crafted an engaging two-week program with scientific modules, lectures, a workshop, and social events (e.g. night hike, Midsummer party, etc.). Additionally, the scientific program will offer selected candidates the opportunity of on-site visits to the Bio-Science industry in and around Jena, participate in lectures on state-of-the-art live-cell imaging with our collaborators from overseas, and get in touch with PhD representatives and spokespersons of our graduate school as well as getting the opportunity to chat with research group leaders and industry professionals alike.

What does the Summer School package include?

The JSMC will financially support accommodations including dinners, and partial travel expenses for all selected participants. Guided tours in and around Jena, the institutes, campuses, and tickets for public transport will also be part of the Summer School package. Who can apply? Applications are open to national and international MSc. graduates in biosciences, biochemistry, bioinformatics, or related fields who are interested in pursuing a doctorate in Microbial Communication with us.
